Seyyed Mohamad Hamidzadeh; Mohsen Rezaei; Mehdi Ranjbar-Bourani

Volume 9, Issue 2 , June 2022, , Pages 288-301

https://doi.org/10.22105/jarie.2022.314293.1400

Abstract
  This paper, presents a mathematical model of a four-level supply chain under hyperchaos circumstances. The analysis of this model shows that the hyper-chaotic supply chain has an unstable equilibrium point. Using Lyapunov's theory of stability, the problem of designing a hyperchaotic supply chain control ...  Read More
